Reece said, frowning as she thought about it. It seemed silly to think that she could fly.
"Try then," William said as they stepped onto the sand on the shore.
"What? What if I can't?" Reece asked.
"Have you seen what you can do? And your asking if you can't?" William said, twisting around.
Reece didn't laugh at his sarcasm. She didn't think it was funny at all.
"Oh, you were serious?" William asked.
Reece nodded.
"Try it! I really want to see if you can fly. I think it would be beautiful to see someone like you flying," William said.
Reece took a step back and looked at William. He really wanted to see her fly, she could tell by the way he was looking at her.
"I don't know how," she whispered, looking down at her sandy feet.
"Try. I just want to see if you can!" William said.
Reece ignored him and jumped back into the murky water, gulping water in as it came out of her gills.
She swam till she made it to the middle of the lake, where it was the deepest. She swam down until she touched the bottom, then looked up. She was really far down, she noticed.
Reece's heart was beating fast like it had been every time she kissed William. She kept looking at the surface above her and closed her eyes.
She felt herself rising up, into the air at a speed of over a hundred miles per hour.
She opened her eyes to see that she was spinning at supersonic speed in the middle of a waterspout that she had made.
She could hear William yelling something to her. She tried to see through the water that was still spinning, but all she could see was the water spinning around her. She closed her eyes and stopped spinning, the water falling back to the lake.
She was still in mid-air when she opened her eyes. She looked down at the shore and saw that William was waving at her and jumping up and down.
"Yeah!" William yelled loudly, but sounded like an echo to Reece, who wobbled in the air and let herself fall into the lake.
She opened her eyes as she splashed into the water and began to swim to the shore. In an instant she was at the shore.
She gasped for air and she laid on the sand, laughing.
William rushed to her side and landed next to her. "Wow, that was so amazing! You literally jumped out of the lake at like a hundred miles per hour causing the water to make a waterspout! I had never seen anything like that in my life!"
William laughed and leaned in to kiss Reece.
Reece laughed. She felt giddy and happy and everything in between that.
"You are the most amazing person I have ever met, Reece," William said, kissing her neck, entangling himself with her.
"William," Reece said, butterflies in her stomach.
"Yes?" William asked, kissing her.
"I think I love you from the moment that I met you," Reece whispered into his ear. He stopped kissing her and looked at her newly colored eyes.
"I think I love you from the moment that I met you too, Reece," William said. "And I want to marry you."
Reece sat up and looked at him. "Your joking right?"
William wasn't. "No. I want to marry you, Reece."
"But what about when you got married to Evernime? What about her?" Reece asked.
"I don't care about Evernime, Reece. I told you before that it didn't even work out. When Evernime and I first met, it was just a stupid crush that didn't go anywhere. I have never felt like this about anyone before in my life. Your all I see when I close my eyes and your in my dreams. I can't get you out of my head, Reece. I don't care about anyone but you," William said, kissing her on the hand.
Reece didn't know what to say. She didn't think she would get married ever. She never even dreamed of getting married because she didn't think that a real love would happen for her.
But now that it had, she thought about it. What if they did get married? She knew she couldn't until they stopped the Skincrawlers from trying to kill the human race off.
"What if we got married after all of this?" Reece asked, looking at the sun that had begun to dip beyond the lake.
William smiled, glad. "So, is that a yes?" He kissed her neck.
Reece sighed as the tingly feeling she so loved sent a good chill up her spine. "Yes, it is."
William looked at her then kissed her on the lips, slowly at first then faster as they entangled themselves together, kissing until the sun was gone and the stars had shown up.
They kissed until Evernime and Creon decided to find a way down to shore that led to the spot that Reece and William were at.
"You going to suck each other's face till tomorrow, or what?" Evernime asked, laughing.
Reece and William pulled apart, laughing with her.
"How long were you standing there?" William asked, helping Reece up off the sand. They both were covered with sand from head to toe. They would need a change of clothes.
"Not long. Just long enough to see something that I didn't want to see. I think you permanently scarred me," Evernime said with a smile.
"Oh, ha ha, Evernime. Like you've never seen people making out," Reece said, catching her breath. She felt her cheeks and noticed that they were really warm. She blushed and buried her face in William's chest.
Evernime frowned. She was over William, but she didn't like how Reece would kiss him in front of her when she knew that Evernime had been with him before her.
Reece wouldn't look at Evernime or Creon.
"So, how are you doing, Creon?" Reece asked, rubbing her neck, sand falling from her neck when she was lying on the sand.
"Doing okay, I guess. I stayed up there even when you and William jumped off the edge. Then Evernime went and looked around the town to give me privacy with Monika," Creon said, close to tears again. "We were going to name the baby Rose if it was a girl and John if it was a boy."
Reece hugged Creon, who cried again. "I'm so sorry, Creon. And I promise that when we find whoever did this to them will be punished for doing such a cruel thing. And I will let you do whatever you want to do to them if you want to."
Reece let him go. She still wasn't sure if Creon would turn on them, even if he claimed to be on their side. She didn't want him to jump into her.
Just thinking of when a Skincrawler was in her body freaked her out and sent a chill down her spine.
She backed up and leaned into William's arms, which were warm and comforting.
Evernime looked at Creon, who hadn't wiped the tears off his face.
"You really love her, don't you?" Evernime asked, feeling sorry for him.
"Yes, I did," Creon said, bowing his head.
"Can't you bring her back like you did when she first died?" Reece asked.
Creon just shook his head. "That's not how those things work. Once just brings them back from the dead, but once they die again, you can't bring them back. Its just how life works. If I was to bring her back after she's been dead for at least a day, then she wouldn't be the same. She would be sad and lonely on the planet, longing."
"How do you know?" Reece asked in a whisper, a tear falling from her eye.
"I have done that before," was all he could manage to get out. He didn't want to tell them the story of how he brought someone to life twice. It was unbearable to look at someone who had been brought back to life twice.
No one pried him of anything else. He looked like he was going to pass out any second.
"Creon, maybe you should stay at her place until your better," Evernime said, as they all walked up the hill to the top of the cliff.
Reece was so tired and she didn't want to climb anymore, so she flew up to the top and watched as everyone else had to climb up.
When William's head was in view at the top, Reece smiled. "What took you so long, slow-poke?" She smiled as she kissed him.
William laughed. "You cheated, you know. We all had to walk up that steep thing and you got to fly up here. Lucky," he said, laughing some more.
Evernime finally made it to the top. "Phew! What a hike!"
"Where's Creon?" Reece asked, looking at the trail, but saw nothing.
Evernime looked behind her. "He was right behind me, I swear. Maybe he stopped to take a breather. Who knows?"
Reece frowned as she looked down the path again and sighed with relief when she saw his head bobbing up and down with each step he took.
"Creon?" Reece asked, watching his every step.
Creon's head slowly looked up from the ground as he walked. He looked like he had been crying again. He probably had been.
"You okay, man?" William asked, holding Reece closer to him.
Creon nodded, but everyone knew he wasn't. He had lost the love of his life and his unborn child that he just found out about. She had been killed by the hands of his creators and he wanted them to pay just like he had.
He couldn't believe that everything he had done for Erone and Roney just killed his wife to get to him. He knew that Monika wouldn't tell them where he was because he had told her not to no matter what. He had no idea that Erone and Roney would even go through this, but then again, they are two brother's who would do anything to rule the planet for themselves.
"We should go before the police find me and want to talk about why I left town," Reece said, turning to look at the town in front of her where she had grown up in and lived.
"What day is it?" William asked. "I mean like the date."
"I don't know. Why?" Reece asked, shrugging as they headed into town.
"I do believe that it is the tenth. Why?" Evernime asked, looking at her phone's calendar.
Reece stopped. "Oh, my gosh!"
"What is it?" William asked.
"My birthday was yesterday," Reece laughed out loud. She had forgot her own birthday and didn't even realize it.
"No shit?" William asked, smiling. "Then happy birthday, Reece."
Reece laughed. "You mean happy late birthday, right?"
"We need to get you a present, don't we?" William asked, looking at Evernime, who frowned. William never got her a present when it was her birthday.
"No, don't. I don't want anything. Well, I do, but you can't get it for me. No one can. It already happened, and it cannot be undone," Reece said, looking away from William.
Everyone knew what she wanted. She wanted everything to be like it had been before all of this.
"But the thing is, is if everything was the same as it had been, then I would never have met you, William, or you Evernime. You guys are the best things that have happened to me in my whole life," Reece said, smiling up at William and Evernime.
Evernime smiled back at her. She did like Reece, but she didn't like how she was always telling them what to do. She didn't like to be told
